The Souper Cubes (also available on Amazon and other places) make me so happy!
Most of the garlic I harvested this year was chopped in the food processor and placed in the 2 T. cubes. I think I ended up with over 300 cubes of garlic. Each of the 2 T. cube trays has 10 “holes” and I have six trays. Every time I chopped the garlic, I filled all 6 trays five times so that’s 60 x 5 = 300 but I also filled a couple of trays one more time. I A few times I also filled some of the 1/2 cup trays. Those can be partially filled for 1/4 cup but, with the garlic, I filled them to the 1/2 cup mark. I can always break one in half if I don’t want the whole thing but when I’m making gumbo or a pound of dried beans, I will use the half cup of garlic. I think I have enough garlic to last me til I harvest again in the summer.
This morning I dumped the last of the garlic that was still in the freezer so that freed up the cubes to use for something else.
I like to make little pucks of chopped chicken liver, gizzards, pumpkin and broth for the dogs. I will add one cube per day or every other day to their evening meal – 1 cube per dog per day means I needed to fill all six trays so I got that done. Each day, I take two cups out of the freezer, put them in the dogs’ bowls after they’ve had their morning food. Then for their evening meal, I add their dog food to the defrosted cube, drizzle about 1/2 tsp. of olive oil in each bowl and they think they’re having a feast.
We’re having turkey (bought one on sale at Aldi last week) today so I grabbed a 2 cup cube of sweet potato casserole that we had leftover from Thanksgiving. We will have that, along with green beans, rolls and cranberry sauce for our meal.

After reading about Souper Cubes and their response for customers in California I ordered the one cup set. So easy to remove whatever is frozen in them with no staining. I will be ordering more sizes.

I don’t know if you realize this or not, but the people that own the Souper Cube company live down in California and their house burned down in the LA fires. I saw it on Instagram and started following them. They are asking people to use their product and tag them so they can post it to their account since they no longer have the ability to make recipes right now. The cubes sound like a really great product. Have a great day! Kara

Yes, thank you. I knew about their fire and their requests. I pray for all of those affected by the fires.
